In addition to the documentary, Netflix will also premiere Avicii – My Last Show (about ~30 minutes long) on December 31st, offering fans a chance to relive his final performance from Ibiza’s Ushuaïa in 2016.

Such a sad story.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Henrik Burman’s doc Avicii – I’m Tim, direct from YouTube:
“Before Avicii, there was Tim.” This is the unlikely story of Tim Bergling – a shy and insecure boy who, without realizing it, suddenly created one of the world’s most loved artists – Avicii. Through unique home movies and a huge private archive, we get to follow Tim on a winding journey through life – from the very first breath at the maternity ward in Stockholm in 1989 to the tragic end in Oman in 2018. This is a film where Tim himself is the narrator and he shares his inner self in a way we haven’t heard before. Through himself and everyone close to him – family, artist colleagues and best friends – we get to know Tim – the actual boy behind Avicii – for the very first time. Avicii – I’m Tim is directed by Swedish music filmmaker Henrik Burman, also director of the music film Yung Lean: In My Head previously and other short films / music videos. Produced by Björn Tjärnberg. Made by Candamo Film. Netflix will release the Avicii – I’m Tim doc streaming on Netflix worldwide starting December 31st, 2024 at the end of this year. Who’s in?
